Book Synopsis Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Chile: The country study by : Alberto Valdés
Download or read book Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Chile: The country study written by Alberto Valdés and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of this study were twofold. The first objective was to measure for the 1960 -84 period the level of price intervention on agricultural products and the effects it had on output, consumption, foreign exchange, the government budget, income transfers between agriculture and the rest of the economy, and income distribution. The second and ultimate objective was to analyze the political economy of price intervention ( to understand the interaction between political and economic forces ). Central to the objectives was the knowledge of what political constraints influenced decisions on agricultural pricing policy, as well as to what extent economic constraints on the government and market forces led to pressures on policymakers to alter farm price policies. An underlying thesis of this study is that agricultural incentives are strongly affected by developments in other sectors of the economy, especially by trade and macroeconomic policies. The report is divided into 3 parts : Part I presents an overview of the economy and the agricultural sector, then gives a descriptive history of agricultural price policies; Part II presents the effects of these policies; and Part III presents the political economy interpretation of these policies. The appendices detail the estimation procedures as well as the basic data used.

Book Synopsis Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Argentina by : Adolfo Sturzenegger
Download or read book Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Argentina written by Adolfo Sturzenegger and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the twentieth century until World War II, Argentina was a leading exporter of agricultural goods. In the early 1980s, agriculture accounted for roughly 57 percent of the country's total exports. During the period covered by this study (1961 to 1985), Argentina's trade policy, which was carried out through export taxes on the main agricultural and agroindustrial products and through industrial protection, was designed to discriminate against most exports vis-a-vis imports. This study examines the impact of trade and exchange rate policies on wheat, corn, sorghum, soybeans, sunflower seeds and beef production. One of its prinicipal findings is that direct price intervention substantially reduced producer prices and that industrial protection policies and overvaluation of the real exchange rate taxed agriculture even more than direct interventions. The study also explores the political factors underlying the establishment of policies that had these negative effects. The main conclusion is that external events, such as the Great Depression and World War II led to a fall in export prices and to higher import prices. Policies were established in the post war period to maintain the protection to import-substitutes and the taxation of agriculture. Export taxes were seen as a way of keeping domestic food prices low and of improving fiscal equilibrium by producing larger tax revenues.
Book Synopsis Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Colombia by : Jorge García García
Download or read book Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Colombia written by Jorge García García and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph examines the impact of direct and indirect government intervention in Colombia's coffee, cotton, rice, and wheat markets between 1960 and 1983 and compares it with the situation that would have prevailed in the absence of intervention. The effects of intervention on prices, production, consumption, net foreign exchange earnings, the real income of producers and consumers, and transfers of income between agriculture and the rest of the economy are evaluated. As a result of state interventions (direct and indirect) in the market for the four commodities, production of these commodities fell below its potential level : a difference of 20 % for coffee and rice, 40 % for cotton, and 15 for wheat. These interventions were maintained even though they hurt agricultural producers. The report points out that one reason for intervention is to help consumers, but the results show that real annual incomes of the poorest consumers of rice and wheat derived products never increased by more than 3 percent. Direct intervention, however, isolated the domestic from the international market and thus prevented the transmission of variations in international prices to domestic prices.

Book Synopsis Success in Agricultural Transformation by : Isabelle Tsakok
Download or read book Success in Agricultural Transformation written by Isabelle Tsakok and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To lift and keep millions out of poverty requires that smallholder agriculture be productive and profitable in the developing world. Do we know how to make this happen? Researchers and practitioners still debate how best to do so. The prevailing methodology, which claims causality from measures of statistical significance, is inductive and yields contradictory results. In this book, instead of correlations, Isabelle Tsakok looks for patterns common to cases of successful agricultural transformation and then tests them against other cases. She proposes a hypothesis that five sets of conditions are necessary to achieve success. She concludes that government investment in and delivery of public goods and services sustained over decades is essential to maintaining these conditions and thus successfully transform poverty-ridden agricultures. No amount of foreign aid can substitute for such sustained government commitment. The single most important threat to such government commitment is subservience to the rich and powerful minority.
Book Synopsis Reforming Agricultural Trade for Developing Countries by : John Nash
Download or read book Reforming Agricultural Trade for Developing Countries written by John Nash and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006-11-09 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ongoing Doha Development Round of World Trade Organization negotiations, developing countries have had much greater leverage, due at least in part to their large and growing share of world trade. But will the increased influence of developing countries translate into a final agreement that is truly more development-friendly? What would be key ingredients in such a final outcome of the negotiations, and what would the developing countries really get out of it. This two volume set seeks to answer these questions. This volume (Volume 1) is issues-oriented. It takes up some key questions in the negotiations, setting the stage with a historical overview of the Doha Development Agenda to help identify issues of most significance to developing countries, and then explores select issues in greater depth. Volume 2 addresses the question of how a development-friendly outcome to the talks would affect developing countries by quantifying the impact of multilateral trade reform. It presents several different approaches to modeling the effects of the outcome of negotiations, and then investigates why these (and other) modeling efforts produce such divergent results. Aimed at policymakers and stakeholders, this two-volume effort puts into the public domain important analytical work that will improve the chance for a pro-development outcomes of the Doha round negotiations.
